Living with a chronic illness like gastroparesis can be crippling in many ways, especially when it’s so hard to find foods that are safe to eat and also nutritious. This cookbook has helped give me an outline of foods to work with, and has expanded my repertoire of safe foods that are also nutritious. Each recipe is labelled with tags like gluten free, dairy free, GERD friendly, and more, which has been incredibly helpful. On top of solid foods, there are also a lot of delicious soup options and other liquid meals for when your stomach simply can’t handle more, so this book has been helpful during different stages of flare ups for me. The book also includes good recommendations for how to manage the symptoms of gastroparesis beyond the meals themselves. I highly recommend this cookbook for anyone with gastroparesis who wants to expand their possible food options, and for anyone who is newly diagnosed, this is a good place to start.

Gastroparesis sucks
I've had issues with my stomach for years and it took a while to figure out what was going on. I'm really grateful to have a book like this to figure out how to eat in a way that doesn't put me in pain or make me sick. The recipes are good and I recommend it!
